AllFancyDress.Com: A Review & Giveaway

I'm a little bit obsessed with fancy dress. Whenever we get invited to a fancy dress party, I probably get a lot more excited than a thirty four year old should! I made a pact with myself a long time ago that I'd always make a proper effort with any fancy dress costumes I had to wear - and none of that 'sexy policewoman/nurse/nun' rubbish either. The uglier or funnier the better! I also decided that I'd never dress up as the same thing twice - and to this day I've stuck to it.I have to admit that our fancy dress invites are few and far between these days, although the girls get their fair few (did you see the time I dressed them up as Violet and Jack Jack from the Incredibles?). Because my social calendar is somewhat lacking, one of the highlights of the year for me (as you'll most likely already know) is Camp Bestival, and one of the main reasons for this is because each year there is a different fancy dress theme and I get to have heaps of fun.This years theme was Circus - and we were all super excited when AllFancyDress.com offered to dress us for the occasion.I opted for a ringmaster's costume, Evie chose a clown and Daisy wanted to be a dancer (that's kind of circus-y, right?).I'd wanted to dress the girls up as lions and transform their wagon into a cage, but the weather was so scorchio I'd have felt a bit bad kitting them out in full on fur ;)As it happens I thought we scrubbed up rather well; and we were super impressed with the service from AllFancyDress.com. Not only were the outfits of great quality, the delivery was second to none - because of the timescale we opted for delivery next day before 10am and, sure enough, our parcel arrived at 9.30 on the morning we were leaving for Lulworth!

With festival season in full swing, I'm super excited to have teamed up with AllFancyDress.com to offer one Modern Mummy reader a £40 voucher to spend on a costume of their choice!As per my usual terms and conditions, I'm using the Rafflecopter widget below and everyone is entitled to three entries each, with a bonus five entries for following me on Bloglovin.
